Does more volume mean deeper claims for Meissner?

Each dot is one of Meissner’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Meissner’s own 29.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Meissner's grants concentrate

Meissner Filtration Products, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 41.7% of grants classified under B01F (Mixing, e.g. Dissolving, Emulsifying OR Dispersing). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Meissner sits between Medical Microinstruments, Inc. and Merry Yard International Enterprise Corp..

Meissner's three-year grant acceleration

Meissner Filtration Products, Inc. shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
